The sun strikes the most at the equator. The sun strikes lowest at the poles.

The sun rays strike earth most directly at the equator and that's due to the Earth angle of rotation, that makes it possible for the sun to hit most directly at the equate.

The sun rays strike earth least directly at the poles and that's also due to the Earth angle of rotation., that's why the poles are colder than the equator.

A dog starts at the origin and runs forward at 6m/s for 1.5s and then turns around to fetch the ball by running backward at 7m/s
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Total time elapsed between the start and when he returns with the ball is 7.5s

Explanation:

From the question,

- The dog starts at the origin and runs forward at 6m/s for 1.5s. First, we will determine the distance covered while running forward.

From

Speed = Distance / Time

Distance = Speed × Time

Speed = 6m/s

Time = 1.5s

∴ Distance = 6m/s × 1.5s

Distance = 9m

That is, the dog covered a distance of 9m while running forward.

- The dog turns around and runs backward at 7m/s for 3s. Now, we will also determine the distance the dog covered backwards.

Distance = Speed × Time

Speed = 7m/s

Time = 3s

Distance = 7m/s × 3s

Distance = 21m

The dog's displacement from the origin is 21m - 9m = 12m

Now, to calculate how much time has elapsed between the start if the dog runs back to the origin at 4m/s, we will first determine the time the dog spent back to the origin and then add to the time spent for the first two distances.

To get back to the origin, the dog needs to cover 12m

From

Speed = Distance / Time

Time = Distance / Speed

Distance = 12m

Speed = 4m/s

∴ Time = (12m) / (4m/s)

Time = 3s

Therefore, the dog spent 3s to run back to the origin.

Hence, total time elapsed = 1.5s + 3s + 3s

Total time elapsed = 7.5s

What is the net Force needed to get a 16 kg box moving 4 m/s^2?
igomit [66]

Answer:

The net force should be of a magnitude of 64 N

Explanation:

We use Newton's second Law for this:

F_{net} = m\,*\,a

which for our case gives:

F_{net} = m\,*\,a=16\,(4)\,N= 64\,\,N

A 4.5 kg bowling ball rolls down a 500m hill. How much potential energy does it lose?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

22050 J

Explanation:

Given Mass of the ball, m = 4.5 Kg

Height, h =500 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g= 9.8m/s^{2}

To calculate the potential energy we use formula,

PE = mgh

Substituting the given values, we get

PE = 4.5× 9.8×500

    =22050 J
